Second attempt cooking carbonara

So, this is my second attempt cooking carbonara spaghetti.
The first time was quite a failure.
I cooked it with potato campbell soup which I at first do not intend to let anyone find out about it.
The boys went to my place for mahjong (midnight) and I cant wait till the next morning to cook.
I rather cook than play mahjong, imagine that.
Three boys playing mahjong while I try my very best to produce a plate of fail carbonara spaghetti.
They asked me how I cooked it. Of course I’m not gonna tell them that I used campbell soup.
But Alvin found out when he went to toilet, he saw my campbell soup’s can and that expression on his face is unforgettable.
He’s kind of shocked and gave me the wtf face, hahaha.
It’s edible but doesn’t taste nice, plus my spaghetti isn’t cook enough.

Tried cooking it the real way the other day and I guess it kind of work.
I just followed step by step from youtube.
Wanted to surprise the boyf (I told him I’m bring him out for dinner) but while I was cooking halfway I realised the parmesan cheese at home cant be use anymore.
Lousy! Have to called him and asked him to help buy parmesan cheese. There goes the stupid surprise.

Ingredients:
spaghetti.
2 eggs.
parmesan cheese (grated).
pecorino cheese
blackpepper.
bacon.
olive oil.

1# cooked the spaghetti.
2# fry (or whatever you called it) the bacon with olive oil.
3# beat both the eggs.
4# add cheese and mix it with the eggs.
5# dry the spaghetti and put it into the pan where you fried the bacon.
6# add in a little bit of water and the bowl of eggs.
7# add in more cheese.
8# add blackpepper.

that’s about it.
2 eggs for 2 portion. one egg for one.
what a fail instruction, I know.
I don’t know how the measurement goes, just put as you prefer. More cheesy or less cheesy.
I actually did not use parmesan cheese cause I figured that’s a little too hassle for him to buy me the cheese.
I use some other cheese powder that I bought earlier.

Ben thinks it’s nice, I’m not sure if he said that to just make me happy or what.
It’s only cheesy but not creamy as I did not put in any cream and he likes it that way because he said he always feel bloated after eating really creamy carbonara.
Maybe it’ll taste better if I use both the right cheese.

I tried making unbake lemon cheesecake too but fail max as it was too watery and sour. :(
I shall try that again!!

It’s time for me to learn how to really cook a good meal. (:
